You used to have to clear voting gauntlet with a unit of each color and colorless one, two, and three times, I think it's only once or twice now

Yeah, you’re right. I guess I don’t really remember when they made the change because I only ever cared about the divine codes anyway.

I noticed that too. Definitely used to be 3 and now it's 2. I had a much easier time completing them this time.

Correct. Last month's VG was when they changed it so you'd get the 100 flags for each third battle with units of each color to now be part of the second battle's rewards.

Before you ask, no, there was no notification or message that this change got implemented. It just got unceremoniously dropped on us.

Well, cool. I got my wish for Young Marth! They just gave him his normal Rapier++ and the refine effects are neat. I'll consider slotting him back into my Arena team.

For Altena, man I lost the Hall of Forms Lottery big time on that one. I got her Atk/Def Unity and Quick Riposte 4, both of which are made redundant by her refine. :downs: I thought for sure she'd get guard on her refine! So I dug through my manuals and gave her the Atk/Def Stance 3 and Guard Bearing. That should do nicely.

I don't know what to do with Flame Emperor now. She gets guaranteed follow-up, which obviates most of the Fighter skills. Special Fighter would be an obvious choice. My instinct also says she doesn't particularly want to be a Save armor? With that refine, she looks more like she wants Armor Stride or that "Charge" armor skill, get right up in the enemy's grill and start throwing that axe around. I have some Armor Stride thanks to the last Double Special banner. Stupid Valentine Hana would not leave me alone.

Armor Stride is pretty bad as a movement skill because, like Armor March, you're at the whims of the starting layout for whether you can use it turn 1, but unlike Armor March, starting on a solo tile is way, way, way rarer than starting next to each other.

You are correct, but I don't have that armor "Charge" skill going spare, so for now I made do with Stride.

That particular skill is usable by infantry too, just fyi. It always tends to throw me off whenever it comes up, because yeah, it feels like it should be armor only.

She also doesn't look like a cav while we're at it.

FEH is weird.

I'm guessing we'll be getting her on whatever new heroes banner happens after the TT is over. "New Heroes and Void Lady" or whatever.

Same, I thought it was supposed to be his ghost.

Got myself a Nino, but Guinan was the target and I had to spark for her. Felt like a required pull for my Kronya to be maxed out, but I could inherit everything so it was a good option. Guinan with BRobin buff hands out lethalities, so she’s a nice unit too.

Nino’s X skill might be nice for the DR on Kronya but I’ll probably keep holding on to those for now.

Three hopes and Engage are on sale. The former is a musou and the latter is a "normal" SRPG right? Is either worth getting?

Yes, yes, and yes!

Three Hopes is fun and a great "alternate universe" sort of retelling of Three Houses. Engage is exactly what you've been waiting for if you've wished the series would dial back on the dating sim aspects and just concentrate on the SRPG part. At which it excels.

What's the best value special to give to fallen chrom so you can inherit it along with arcane devourer and maybe attack speed clash 4? Ruptured sky? I was hoping for vital astra but I guess horses can't learn that

Probably Ruptured Sky. IS seems to be adding more movement type specific specials though so who knows, maybe cavs will get something similar to Armored Floe/Vita Astra in the future.

It's only been a month since the end of the book, and we can already make a full Seidr emblem.

quote:

Incipit Kvasir (cav red tome):
Slaying
+5 Stats
Penalty on Foe's SPD/RES= 15% of Kvasir's speed
NFU
+1 cooldown on hit
Panic smoke 3
If first combat that turn, 70% DR on first hit

Light is Time (5 charge special):
boost damage by 60% ATK
offensive tempo
If unit initiates and special triggers and Kvsair survives then
EITHER Grants another action to ally within two spaces with highest HP (restrict movement to 1 if ally is ranged)
OR if no allies within two spaces or allies have tied HP then grants "allies within 4 spaces can move adjacent to unit" to Kvasir

ATK/SPD Catch 4

Lull SPD/RES 4

Incite ATK/SPD: basically rouse ATK/SPD + omni-clash as a visible buff


quote:

Quietus Gullveig (cav colorless tome):
Slaying
+5 Stats
+ATK/SPD = 15% of gullveig's SPD
NFU
If unit initiates 70% DR on first hit + heal 7HP after combat + self-refresh (cannot activate two turns in a row) + self-gravity

Time is Light(3 charge special):
boost damage by 45% SPD
offensive tempo
self-refresh + self-gravity

Flared Sparrow

Occultist's Strike: Basically Poison Strike 4 but for mages only

DEF/RES Smoke 3

Thank you for translating that word vomit. I was going cross-eyed!

As for the VG, they have Emo Hair lady (Eitr, that's her name) paired with Freya. That's interesting. Did it actually come up in the TT that she's young Freya? I honestly don't remember.

Unless you want Ginny or new Nino's echo skill for something specific the best value is probably the mythic banner.

Though if you sit until we get a calendar at minimum, there's a possibility it's availability will overlap with December seasonals or the new book banner, so you can shunt the decision down to when there might be stuff you're actually excited for
